Most cameras now let you see the contents of the memory card by displaying the card as a disk drive.This is convenient but is a handicap for a full featured camera.The T3i used a driver which lets people write programs to operate the camera remotely from a computer.

To download the photos to your computer you must use the software provided by Canon (EOS Utility).If you want to view the contents of the card easily, you must buy a card reader for your computer.Put the memory card in the card reader and you will see it as a hard drive.

Question Two:When you loaded the Canon software it changed your program affiliation.I do not know how to change your program affiliation back to "iphoto"
